We have finally confirmed that the Canon EOS RP body is going to cost $1299 when it launches tonight and will come in 3 kits in the USA.
Canon EOS RP USA kits available at launch:
- Canon EOS RP Body w/EG-E1 Extension Grip & Canon Mount Adapter $1299

We're not sure if the EG-E1 extension grip and included Canon Mount Adapter will be a limited time preorder deal or not. However, if you have an interest in the EOS RP, get ready to preorder it tonight to take advantage of this amazing aggressive pricing.
You can check out the specifications and images of the Canon EOS RP here.
We've reported UK pricing as follows: (Unconfirmed and likely include VAT)

- EOS RP & RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM: £2329.00
A third party has posted the EOS RP on Amazon UK with lower prices than above. You can see the listings here and here. DO NOT preorder from these links as there's nothing official about them. I have not attached any sort of affiliate link either.
Pricing in Japan has been reported as follows: (Unconfirmed and likely includes tax)
- Body: around 173,340 yen
- Mount adapter kit: around 194,940 yen
- RF35 MACRO IS STM lens kit: around 237,060 yen
- RF35 MACRO IS STM mount adapter kit: around 258,660 yen
- Mount adapter SP kit gold (limited to 5000 units): around 204,660 yen
- RF35 MACRO IS STM Mount adapter SP kit gold (limited to 5000 units): around 268,380 yen
I wish they would have announced a kit with the rumored RF 24-240 rather than the adapted EF 24-105 STM, but at this pricing I really have no complaints. I would pick the RF 24-105 anyway.
Articulating LCD, FF sensor, DPAF, and light lenses. Should be a good vlogger or someone to get into FF mirrorless.
It went on sale for $200 off today, so that's a good start :)
EDIT: That's only the kit with the 24-105, sorry.
I can imagine that there will come a moment that the adapter for EF will be bundled in as an incentive later on.
I am very very interested. Can’t wait to see the new glass coming out as well, the 15-35 really interests me.
Smart move Canon!
